Abstract:Background:
We aimed to investigate the effect of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) applied to patients with hemiplegia on somatosensory data, spatiotemporal parameters, posture, and muscle tone.
Methods:
This was a double-blind, randomised, controlled trial. Patients were randomised within pairs to either the experimental (ESWT) group (n = 20) or the control group (n = 20). All patients participated in the same conventional stroke rehabilitation program for 60 m… Show more
